Nice and clean hotel. We had a moisture problem in the room and they solved it immediately. Very responsive and quick service. The half board selection is not quite good though. You eat from the same menu every single night which becomes boring after some time. I would prefer some sort of credit so that we can go to different restaurants and eat from different menus. If you can eat outside, I would go for only breakfast included option. Pool is big and clean, Very good spa and massage options. Although it is 2 min walking distance, Hotel does not have beach front access. Great beach though. I would definitely go again to this Hotel.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel with our young family-the pool, room, amenities and staff were amazing. The breakfast every morning was superb. We enjoyed that there were dining options, excursions and beach nearby too. The spa was also fantastic. Our son loved the kids club too. Very detailed and thoughtful service all around. The one downside was no lifeguard at the pool despite lots of children. One father was showing their children how to dive in the shallow water and there was an incident prior to us arriving. The size, layout and numbers should expect a life guard at an international hotel chain like Accor.

Our stay was ok. The staff were really lovely but unfortunately we had cold water our entire stay. We also had to queue for the breakfast buffet. There was also a closed section of sunbeds for our entire stay. Our room was lovely and clean, and when we complained about the cold water we were kindly gifted a lovely meal and credit to use. Overall it was ok but unfortunately we won’t be back.

The property is lovely and the rooms and infinite pool are excellent. The downside is the rates for dining, drinks and even happy hour which are all inconsistent with the local economy and value. I felt on occasion at the bar and in the restaurant there was a money grab. This was extremely disappointing as everything else was superb.

A smart and upmarket hotel in a great location

A beautifully kept hotel in a great location. The staff were all friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Rooms were large with comfortable beds. The breakfast buffet had an excellent selection with good seating. The pool area is a good size with no issues with getting a bed during our stay as people didn’t tend to stay there all day. The beach is 2 mins walk over the road. We liked this end of Karon closer to Kata. Plenty of great restaurant options. There is a nice gym facility with yoga and exercise classes available too. A great stay.

Overall the stay was ok but we found the food menu offer for half-board quite limited, after suffer food posining eating outside the hotel the food in the hotel is quite limited with no fish or meat offer apart from chicken. If you are happy to pay extra then yes you can get options, the drinks were quite priced as well for what we are use too. Another problem is the sun beds, there is quite a mini war to get a pair when you look for it, good luck on the hunt...
